3M™, 7010291474, Filter Cartridge, Series: SP Series, 8 in OD, 30 in Height, 176 deg F, 50 psig at 104 deg F Maximum, 0.65 micron Filter, Cellulose Filter
Zeta Plus™ SP series filter cartridges have been developed to provide optimal clarification of pharmaceutical, biological, bioprocess and cosmetic fluids. They are constructed with Zeta Plus™ SP series depth filtration media, composed of inorganic filter aid, cellulose and a resin system that imparts a positive charge to the filter matrix, aiding its adsorption of negatively charged contaminants.. Incorporating features of the standard Zeta™ plus S series filter cartridges, Zeta Plus™ SP series filter cartridges are manufactured to controls prescribed in 3M™ purification's drug master files on record with the FDA. Certificates of quality are included with every filter. The Zeta Plus™ SP series filter cartridges have complete lot-to-lot traceability and meet the requirements for USP class vi biological reactivity tests. The 3M™ family of Zeta Plus™ SP series filter cartridges are composed of advanced cellulose based depth filtration media, designed to retain contaminants by both mechanical entrapment and electro kinetic adsorption. Zeta Plus™ filter media is composed of high surface area filter aids embedded in a cellulose fiber matrix. During the manufacturing process, the resin system incorporated into the filter media imparts a positive charge to the filter matrix to permanently form an interconnected filtration structure with positively charged electro kinetic capture sites. The resulting porous depth filter is a complex network of charge enhanced flow channels capable of removing bacteria, particulate, cellular debris and submicronic contaminants to a level which mechanical screening alone cannot achieve. These cartridges are constructed from individual cells of Zeta Plus™ SP series filter media assembled together with polypropylene ring seals under predetermined compression and unitized by three, 316 stainless steel bands. Each cell is constructed using polypropylene molded edge seals and separators for high performance. Additional gasket material options are available. Zeta Plus™ applications pharmaceuticals blood and blood products, antibiotics, cough syrups intravenous solutions, vaccines, growth media, bioprocess fluid. Zeta Plus™ SP series filter media is available in a broad range of micron ratings to meet coarse, medium or fine clarification applications. Optimum flow rates vary by application, but in general, lower flux rates often result in longer service life, greater throughputs and superior system economics. Zeta Plus™ scalability, 3M™ purification, Inc. Also offers a range of cartridge sizes, making scale-up easy and predictable, from laboratory scale to pilot plant and from pilot plant to full production. Filter cartridges are available in 8, 12 and 16 in Dia, with surface areas ranging from 650 sq-cm to 3.9 sq-m (0.7 sq-ft to 42.2 sq-ft) per cartridge) to make scale-up straight forward and predictable.
